Thai Airways has been at the receiving end of a lot of criticism for denying a woman and her two daughters entry into business class owing to their weight.&nbsp;

According to reports, a 59-year-old woman from Auckland, New Zealand, and her two daughters were not let onto the business class flight from Bangkok to Auckland owing to their size&nbsp;

Thai Airways made headlines over a similar issue last year.&nbsp;

Thai Airways International (THAI) had said that it had put a limit on the waist sizes for its passengers and had also put a ban on carrying infants on laps in business class on two of its Boeing 787-9 aircraft.

As per reports, the airlines had said that the limit and the ban on carrying kids in the lap was a consequence of the installation of safety seat belt airbags.

It was reported that passengers with a waistline over 56 inches (142.24 centimetres) could not fasten these new seatbelt airbags which meet US Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) safety standards.&nbsp;
